greetings and salutations
Hello everybody.
I pop in and out of here every now and then so I tought the polite thing to do would be to introduce myself good and proper.
I'm Aidan
I'm 23
I live in Cork/Ireland
I work for a big giant company that build big giant computers
I started learning to spin last feb, its not going to bad, i can hold my own with a staff and i've started to teach myself contact (i am the only staffer i know in ireland at present, there are more, i just dont know them
). I need a new staff for this becaus the two i've got dont seem to feel right. Contact staff is baddass and feels nigh on impossible, which makes it much fun.
Just gotten my first set of fire poi and neon meteors
Meteors is hard, I have a vision of monstor wraps so i'll not give up.
Poi is fun, every time i pick them up, (which is about ten time in my life so far) i seem to learn something new. Which is encouraging. However, this is upsetting my friends bacause it makes them feel old... I am taking my work underground (read: my bedroom). Very interested in contact poi...
I would also love to learn to contact juggle (are you picking up on a theme here yet....)
what else...mmm... I love to perform and have recently started performing on the street here in cork. Met with much ecouragement (and money) so will be doing much more of that.
Feel free to ask me questions and give me presents.

Ello there

The world needs more Irish fire spinners, that's what I always say
I do feel free, so-
What presents would you like? I've got a yellow highlighter, a business card for Kingspan insulation, or an old orange squash bottle half full of spring water.
Think very carefully...
greetings and salutations
Hello there, nice to see your introduction :57
greetings and salutations
I would like the business card please, it about time i insulated my cubicle....
in return i can offer you any number of half completed drawings or some colored paper clips...
Hi spiral!!!
greetings and salutations
OOOH! Half completed drawing please!
They'll convince my colleages that I am actually doing some work (even if it is totally the wrong work).

Hi Ado-p!!
Welcome to Spherculism. I'm glad you found it.
Keep me posted on the contact staff. Have you seen the link to MCP's tutorials yet? Awesome stuff.

Hi adop
Don't suppose anyones feeling generous with a paperclip or two are they?
Chut

I do have a number of paper clips available.... red or blue... the choice is yours....
Hello all,
I will indeed keep you posted on my contact work, that is as soon as i can get it to stay in contact with me... gravity has me outnumbered and outgunned....
Hi Saucy,
I found this place about 6 months ago, but i started on the darkside (staff side) you see, now my mission is to bring poi into the darkness with me....
it'l brighten the place up!!!

Hello there young Aidan.
Welcome and salutations (although, I'm only really just arrived myself)
Hope all is going well in the world of big giant computers... and thank you, but no, I don't need any paper clips.
Take care darlin, and I'll see you Friday xx

Halloo Poikid
I am well thanks, hope this finds you in good health.
The girls are currently fillingthe thread with all sorts of sentiments. Feel free to 'Man' it up a bit more.
Anyone want to talk bout cars or weightlifting or somethin.
greetings and salutations
Hey - ado-p ... poikid's also a girl. You're outnumbered!!!
:36
But I'll talk about cars if you want. What kind of car do YOU drive?
greetings and salutations
Me? I dont know how to drive.....
but after i've been spinning my hands get real dirty and it looks like i've been working on engines or something
sorry for the gender misconception poikid. im clearly desperate for a male influence.
Anybody?
greetings and salutations
Such nonsense... you thrive on female attention you big male slut
:47
greetings and salutations
greetings and salutations

greetings and salutations
So it's safe to assume the visit went well, eh?
greetings and salutations
indeed, the lovely firepoise came to see me for a whole long weekend.
ther was fire and fun and much happiness.
how are you young lady (note the use of the word young)
greetings and salutations
Hehe no worries man
I get it all the time
[waves and departs]
-PoiKid-
greetings and salutations
there was smoking and chocolate too, sir, don't forget about those
:56
greetings and salutations
Woah :o You're over-run in here adop

You're obviously some sort of girl magnet
I'd help out but I don't drive or weightlift myself. About the butchest thing I do is rockclimbing but it seems I'm already outnumbered by the rockclimbing women in here 8O
I guess we'll have to resort to the old grunting and beating our chests routine.
GGggrrrrrrrr
Ugh, UGH
[Starts scratching testicles]
greetings and salutations
Thats exactly it stone... I am a babe magnet!!!!
raaawwwwrrrrr
greetings and salutations
[Stops scratching testicles]
Sorry, I was getting worried looks from the guy sat next to me. :oops:
greetings and salutations
Oh god.
Stone, please, don't say things like that... you've no idea what a comment like that could do to his ego (and my sanity)
:30
greetings and salutations
Its to late
*has a scratch*
greetings and salutations
Surely you must agree Firepoise? The man is obviously the heart throb of this site
Grrrr.

greetings and salutations
Welcome Mister CAt
You male presence is appreciated in the face of all this ovarian influence
greetings and salutations
Hello lovely Rob (even lovelier since Aidan can't even SPELL MY NAME correctly)
All is well... I spent some time in SE Asia (met Andy of PoiBoxII fame) and now I'm back home in Belfast waiting for the next adventure - probably India next year.
How are you getting on? If you and your lady friend decide on a trip over here - let me know
(though it seems I may be heading that way in January... maybe)
And Stone, honestly, he-who-cannot-spell-my-name does not need any encouragement.
Aidan... you are not in any way lovely until you can work out how to spell Clare. It's a county even, not far from you. Do a frickin search
greetings and salutations
Cant i just call you firepise intead?
greetings and salutations
Aidan, so far in this intro thread I have discovered that you got married with a hula hoop and that you can't spell (and more importantly, you can't spell my very simple, one syllable name).
No amount of firey wiggling is going to get you out of this one sunshine. I want presents.
Hmpf.
